Your P&L says you're profitable.
Your bank account disagrees.

Most clients in the $500K–$10M range invest $2,500–$5,000 per month for fractional controller services. But here's the math that matters more: our average client sees over $150,000 in recovered revenue and margin improvements in the first year — from unbilled change orders, pricing corrections, faster collections, and jobs that were quietly bleeding money. That's a typical 3–4× return on investment. The real question isn't whether you can afford construction-specific financial systems. It's what it's costing you not to have them. If even $20K in change orders are sitting unbilled right now, or you're making bids based on data that's weeks behind reality, that gap is already more expensive than our services.

Of course. But we'd encourage you to think about what "ready" actually means. If it's a timing issue — you're mid-project or mid-year — that's fair, and we can plan around your schedule. If it's a budget concern, the ROI conversation above usually changes the equation. And if it's uncertainty about whether this will actually work for your company, that's exactly what the free assessment is for. We'll look at your books for 30 minutes and tell you specifically what we'd fix and what it would be worth. No commitment. The only thing we'd caution against is waiting until tax season, bonding renewal, or a cash crisis forces the issue. The contractors who come to us proactively always get better results than the ones who come in emergency mode.

Three things. First, construction is all we do. We're not a general bookkeeping firm that also takes on contractors. Every system, every process, every report we build is designed specifically for how construction money moves — job costing, retainage, WIP schedules, progress billing, change order tracking. Second, we integrate your project management software (Buildertrend, Procore, CoConstruct, Knowify) directly with QuickBooks so your field data and financial data are the same data. No double entry. No "let me pull those numbers" delays. Third, we operate as your fractional controller — not just someone who categorizes expenses after the fact, but a strategic partner who forecasts cash flow, flags underperforming jobs in real time, and gives you reports your bank and bonding agent will actually accept. We're NAHB members, QuickBooks ProAdvisors, and BBB accredited. But what actually matters is the results: $28K recovered in unbilled change orders, 21-day faster collections, and clients who finally trust their own numbers.

Yes — and before you groan, here's why. QuickBooks Online is the industry standard for cloud-based construction accounting. It's the only platform that integrates properly with Buildertrend, Procore, CoConstruct, and Knowify, which means your field data flows directly into your financials without anyone retyping numbers. Desktop doesn't do that. Neither does most other accounting software, at least not for construction-specific workflows like job costing, retainage tracking, and WIP reporting. We handle the full migration — chart of accounts, historical data, open invoices, everything. Most clients tell us they wish they'd switched sooner. The real-time visibility alone is worth it, and the fact that you (and we) can access your books from anywhere means no more waiting for someone to email you a file.
